Smile Back With Black

Hey there! I was away from FTE for a while but am back. At first I had my '93 F-150 which was white. Now I have a 2004 F-150 that is black. I honestly was thinking of going with another brand of truck. I test drove a Dodge. Didn't like it, even with a Hemi! I didn't get myself to ever test drive a Chevy. Then I test drove a 2004 F-150. I loved it! I am not into fancy trucks. I like them plain. But the base model has so many features! The extra doors are really handy. The split 40-20-40 seats are really nice. The 4.6 has plenty of power. The truck rides really well. It's fun to drive. And being black it really looks good, even with the standard wheels! I dropped in a nice Alpine CD player and it sounds great! So I'm very happy with it. Still thinking of some mods for the future: rims, sub-woofer, etc.
